Abstract

The invention discloses an active optical fiber for homogenizing the light intensity distribution of a fundamental mode and a preparation method thereof. It includes an inner fiber core doped with rare earth ions and an outer fiber core not doped with rare earth ions. The present invention achieves the homogenization of the light intensity distribution of the fundamental mode transmitted by the fiber core through the setting method in which the inner fiber core is doped with rare earth ions and the outer fiber core is not doped with rare earth ions, and the power density gap between the radial positions of the fiber cores is narrowed, and the power density is enlarged. core mode field area, and using the outer core not doped with rare earth ions, the overlap factor between the high-order mode and the gain region doped with rare earth ions is significantly reduced, achieving the effect of suppressing the gain of the high-order mode; at the same time, it also reduces the fiber core’s withstand The highest power density, thereby increasing the nonlinear threshold of the active fiber.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical fiber technology, in particular to an active optical fiber for homogenizing the light intensity distribution of a fundamental mode and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, the emergence of lasers has greatly promoted the development of modern industry, national defense, medical and scientific applications, among which fiber lasers with high slope efficiency, good beam quality, and excellent thermal management are more popular. Usually, in order to avoid the nonlinear effect of fiber laser due to power increase, the simplest and most effective measure is to expand the core size of the gain fiber to increase the mode field area. However, in actual implementation, as the core diameter increases, the number of transmission modes in the core will increase, thereby deteriorating the beam quality of the output light field, and further affecting the practical performance of the fi...
